Announcements post #505: A Shadow Approaches.
From: Argus, the Tiniest Feracht
Subject: A Shadow Approaches.
What's that? Who's there?!
Rapadruk Season is upon us, Starmourn! As the night's shadows encroach on the day's glow, the gloomy holiday brings out the band of Candy Dans and all sorts of trickery across those populated planets and ALL known racial homeworlds of the sector.
Check out HELP RAPADRUK for more info on this Krona holiday, then head to Gunurash III to talk with Candy Dan or explore the Drukula brothers' infamous Rapa'ruk Mansion (v15087) for some frightful fun! Oh, and set your calendars for October 19th at Sync-1 for a bonus, ritualistic experience before the Starmourn Round Table talk.
And of course, this also kicks off our Scare The Storytellers contest for 2024! This year we will not be limiting the contest entries to a story from your race's - As long as it's scary, creative, and rooted in lore, we're happy to read what you can come up with! More details will be posted soon, including this year's prizes.
Another treat? Why not, 'tis the spoop-iest and treat-iest of seasons after all!
We're also going to start a new, smaller contest to add some spooky vibes to the Lucent Radiowaves in the form of a new band and their top hits.
The winner of this contest may see their band come to life, and all submissions will be put up for consideration to be added to the Lucent Radiowave's new Genres: Goremetal + Synthedge, and Moods: Spooky + Scary.
Your entry should include:
- The new band's name
- A description of 2-3 band members, including what they look and sound like
- 2-3 song names as well as the song's lyrical theme, genre, and mood.
For example:
Band: Gringle's Grungles
Lead Singer: Gringle - A Loroi with a long flowing braid dyed blood red, wrapped around her neck like a hangman's noose. She speaks with a rasping voice, as if she's smoked straight exhaust fumes her whole life, but she sings in a haunting warble that'll send a shiver down your spine.
- Song: Rapasu Quake Killer (Synthedge, Spooky)
A groaning, lilting melody about the loss of a puppy to the monstrous maw of a Northern Usum Rapasu worm that peaks in a roaring crescendo.
- Song: Nightstalker, Dream Eater (Goremetal, Spooky)
Sung by someone that sounds like they've just been stabbed and are trying to pretend they're fine, this anthem is about lost love, but winds its way through strange metaphors and dreamlike sequences.
We'll accept a maximum of 1 band, 3 members, and 3 songs per entry. Please send your entry as a Pastebin or Notepad file to Argus either in-game via Message or on Discord.
Rock on, spacers! And stay tuned for Scare the Storytellers 2024...
